The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 48

Leilani stopped. Although Dante loved playing matchmaker, his attitude toward her had been kind throughout the treatment. Leilani wasn’t heartless. She had noticed the coffee and fruit Dante prepared before her arrival each time, and the small gifts he had the housekeeper give her when she left. So, she had been especially diligent in her treatment.

She could refuse the blind date, but leaving without giving Dante a way to contact her seemed too cold.

Resigned, Leilani finally recited her number under Dante’s expectant gaze.

Dante beamed as he added her, then casually transferred 5 million dollars. “Medical fees! No take-backs!”

Leilani was utterly taken aback by his actions. This old man was so willful it was impossible to be mad at him.

...

Zamora, Premier’s Conference Hall.

Callahan finished reading the last document and checked the time. It was 5 PM. That “Dr. Cheney” should have left by now.

Lennox reported in a low voice, “Mr. Langley, just got a call from Meryl. Dr. Cheney has left. The treatment went smoothly.”

Callahan’s eyes darkened slightly. “What does she look like?”

Lennox paused. “Meryl only said she’s a young woman. Dr. Cheney wore a mask during the treatment, so she didn’t see her face clearly.”

Callahan tapped his finger on the file, thoughtful. Wearing a mask? Coincidence... or deliberate concealment?

He picked up his phone and called Dante. “Grandpa, did that Dr. Cheney leave any contact info?”

Dante sounded triumphant. “Of course! I even transferred her 5 million in medical fees!”

Callahan raised an eyebrow. “You’re certainly generous.”

The real estate agent on the other end sounded enthusiastic. “Of course! Miss, you have great taste. That shop has top-tier location and foot traffic. Many aesthetic centers and high-end clinics are fighting for it...”

“See you in an hour then.” Leilani didn’t have the patience for his sales pitch. She set a time to view the property, and the agent eagerly agreed.

Hanging up, she grabbed her coat and headed out.

An hours later, Leilani stood inside the newly purchased shop, looking around. Spacious storefront, excellent lighting, and independent rooms in the back for treatment and storage. It perfectly met her needs.

To avoid being interrupted like last time, Leilani made the decision quickly. She was looking at premium properties, so there were rarely issues with the hard infrastructure.

“This is it.”

Leilani signed the contract with the agent. She asked him to introduce a renovation team, explained her requirements clearly, and by the time she returned home, it was already evening.
